Detail:

1.  God's ways are mysterious.
       ●  He sometimes leaves our prayers unanswered 
           (from our perspective).
       ●  He has unexpected responses to our prayers.
       ●  He uses unique ways to fulfill His plan.

2.  God's ways are misunderstood.
       ●  People in the church can be confused.
       ●  People in the world can be confused.

3.  God's ways are always moral.
